Movie: The Game

First - I would like to thank Barbara for recommending me The Game. I was quite skeptical, coz lastly all the older movies (from before 2000) were a bit boring. But after 15 minutes of The Game you're getting so much involved into this movie, that all the world is stopping to exist.

Probably you're thinking right now what this movie is all about? Here you go:

Wealthy financier Nicholas Van Orton gets a strange birthday present from wayward brother Conrad: a live-action game that consumes his life.

Not enough? That's good, because you cannot know more before watching it! I mean it! It will spoil everything.

I can only add, that Michael Douglas is playing an amazing role there and this movie has become one of my favorites, even though that my first attempt was quite bad - I felt asleep after 10 minutes (but c'mon - that was only because I was damn tired, seriously!). You really should check it out.

Here's the trailer (perfect teaser):






Genre: Thriller
Rate on imdb.com: 7.7/10
My rate: 8/10

Today I have a plan to watch new thriller: The Speed of Thought. I have a feeling, that it is also a good one... I will tell you soon.

Movies? Series?

Lastly almost all the evenings we are spending on watching movies and TV series. Even though, that I decided to start reading book before bed, which appeared to be impossible. Each time that everything in TV is finished my eyes are shutting themselves and I cannot do anything to open 'em.

But anyways - it's not my point. The thing is that I realized yesterday, that I really hate 'history' movies. In the middle of King's Speech, I seriously thought that I'm gonna die from boredom.... Yesterday, however, I really tried! Really tried! to stay awake on The Notebook! But .. well ... I failed. Instead of that I decided to continue watching possible episodes of ... Desperate Housewives. Damn, getting addicted again.



Does anyone have any good recommendation what to watch? I'm afraid I'm gettin' to close to the last episode of aforementioned TV series ...
